Kavipriya Senapati

People told me if u have severe morning sickness, it's a girl, but honestly I threw up for nine months and had a boy! There's no real way to know, and gender testing is illegal here anyway. Just focus on staying hydrated and surviving the nausea, dear.

I panicked so much when I got a negative after holding for only an hour. Later, I realized I should have waited at least 3-4 hours or used the morning one. Tried again next morning and it was a clear positive, so don't worry!

I have PCOS and was super careful about my diet during pregnancy. Plums are low glycemic and actually quite safe, but I always monitored my portions. Just have one or two fresh ones, they are great for fiber.

My saas always says litchi creates 'garmi' in the body, so she only allowed me to eat 2-3 pieces a day. It is fine in moderation, just wash them nicely first.

I remember looking in the mirror every day in my first month, and I felt so excited thinking my stomach was growing! But it was actually just gas and bloating from the new hormones. The real, beautiful bump usually doesn't show up until the 4th or 5th month!
